Whole‐Mount Acetylcholinesterase Staining Reveals Unique Motor Innervation of the Lamprey Oral Region: With Special Reference to the Evolutionary Origin of the Vertebrate Jaw

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Whole‐mount acetylcholinesterase staining in lamprey embryos reveals that the subpharyngeal subbranch (rV2/3Asubp) of the trigeminal nerve contains motor components and innervates the lower lip. Based on the results, we suggest that a drastic reorganization of the anterior craniofacial region occurred during the vertebrate jaw evolution.

Simultaneous Contralateral Vestibular Schwannoma and Middle Ear Paraganglioma Tumor [PDF]

, 2017
To the best of our knowledge, only 2 cases of a simultaneous contralateral vestibular schwannoma (VS) and middle ear paraganglioma (MEP) have previously been reported in literature.

Sonographic Anatomy and Imaging of the Extracranial Component of the Hypoglossal Nerve (CNXII)

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
The hypoglossal nerve (HN) provides motor innervation to tongue muscles responsible for tongue movement, speech, mastication, swallowing, respiratory functions and management of oral secretions. The intracranial component of the HN can be demonstrated on magnetic resonance imaging and the extracranial component can be demonstrated with sonographic ...

Reappraisal of glossopharyngeal neuralgia

Interdisciplinary Neurosurgery, 2018
Glossopharyngeal neuralgia is a rare disease characterized by severe paroxysmal attacks of pain in the distribution of the 9th cranial nerve. Glossopharyngeal neuralgia primarily can be caused by compression of the glossopharyngeal nerve, but in some ...

Imaging Characteristics of Persistent Carotid‐Vertebrobasilar Anastomoses Detected by Ultrasound

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
In this case series, we aimed to evaluate the ultrasonic characteristics of 35 patients with persistent carotid‐vertebrobasilar anastomoses (PCVBA), a rare variant between the anterior and posterior cerebral circulation. Ultrasound detected seven (30.4%, 7/23) primitive trigeminal arteries (PTA), eight (100%, 8/8) primitive hypoglossal arteries (PHA ...

Ear pain in patients with oropharynx carcinoma: how MRI contributes to the explanation of a prognostic and predictive symptom [PDF]

, 2018
Reflex otalgia is a predictive and prognostic parameter for local control in patients with oropharynx carcinoma. Can a morphologic correlate of this important symptom be detected by MRI?

Dosimetric Analysis of Neural and Vascular Structures in Skull Base Tumors Treated with Stereotactic Radiosurgery. [PDF]

, 2017
Objective To examine the relationship between the prescribed target dose and the dose to healthy neurovascular structures in patients with vestibular schwannomas treated with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS).

Mechanisms of Improving Feeding Function With Capsaicin Following Local Anesthesia in Infant Pigs

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
With inferior alveolar nerve anesthetization, we found changes in some behavioral variables, as well as a decrease in bolus sizes and improved airway protection. This highlights the tradeoff between feeding efficiency and feeding safety. With capsaicin administration, some behavioral variables were returned to baseline values fully or partially, which ...

Association between Perceived Dysphagia Symptoms and Swallowing Physiology in Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Swallowing disorders are prevalent in Parkinson's disease (PD). Swallowing assessment often relies on patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs). Although PROMs and physiologic swallowing measures correlate with disease severity, the relationship between PROMs and physiologic swallowing impairments is unclear.
